A complex, full-bodied blend of 67% Cabernet Franc and 33% Merlot, the pureCru 2012 ‘CFM’ was produced from several premium vineyards in Napa Valley, including the Carpenter Vineyard in St. Helena. On the nose, aromas of cedar-cigar box mingle with hints of classic sweet clove and a deep rose. The palate offers flavors of clove, cedar and black fruits with a touch of pepper that is accented by a Bordeaux-like minerality and notes of currants, pomegranate and black plum. Bright fruit flavors dominate the long finish.
